Overview of this book

With the rising demand for and recent enhancements in IoT, a developer with sound knowledge of IoT is the need of the hour. This book will help you design, build, and operate large-scale E2E IoT solutions to transform your business and products, increase revenue, and reduce operational costs. Starting with an overview of how IoT technologies can help you solve your business problems, this book will be a useful guide to helping you implement end-to-end IoT solution architecture. You'll learn to select IoT devices; real-time operating systems; IoT Edge covering Edge location, software, and hardware; and the best IoT connectivity for your IoT solution. As you progress, you'll work with IoT device management, IoT data analytics, IoT platforms, and put these components to work as part of your IoT solution. You'll also be able to build IoT backend cloud from scratch by leveraging the modern app architecture paradigms and cloud-native technologies such as containers and microservices. Finally, you'll discover best practices for different operational excellence pillars, including high availability, resiliency, reliability, security, cost optimization, and high performance, which should be applied for large-scale production-grade IoT solutions. By the end of this IoT book, you'll be confident in designing, building, and operating IoT solutions.

IoT solution high availability and resiliency

As an IoT solution architect, the first thing you do before starting the design of a highly available and resilient IoT solution is to ask the business stakeholders the following questions:

  • What are the expected and accepted Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs)?
  • What are the expected and accepted Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs)?
  • What are the expected and accepted Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) in terms of system availability and performance?

Let's understand better what RPOs and RTOs are with the help of Figure 9.3:

Figure 9.3 – RPO and RTO

Typically, in large-scale and production-grade solutions, there is a backup activity that runs continuously to back up the system data (for example, databases and files) and system software artifacts such as golden virtual machine templates or container images and other artifacts.

Backup is a must-have practice in any large-scale and production...
